Here is the case, this gentlemen came in and talked to me about getting some work done and we agreed on the design he was looking for and I gave him a great price for the detail and size of the tattoo he wanted, Now shop policy (as most shops have) is to receive a deposit for any designs that need to be drawn and for an appointment, because as all artist know we do not work for free, it is our living.my shop has a contract that is written out and we have the customer read it through and sign it.

I was given a small deposit and let this gentlemen know i was booked till the 28th, i did fall very ill between these dates and tried my hardest to make this appointment happen. But things did not work out that way, I let all my clients know right away that i was very sick and had to reschedule there appointments. Not one person had or has had any problem with that, i even kept in contact with all my clients through out my time out. Even this gentlemen i let know because like all my clients they are all important to me and this design I was excited to do.

For some reason this gentlemen shows up at the shop while i am still out and another artist is there along with some shop helpers and other business owners from the neighboring stores. I guess this gentlemen came in and the other artist could not do anything for him at the time because it was not his client to deal with. According to all the others there this gentlemen was just in an irate mood with everyone. I came to the shop to see what the issue was and wanted to defuse any misunderstanding there might have been.

this guy just seemed like he wanted to fight with anyone that was around, I gave him the utmost respect as I do everyone. I even offered him a private tattoo section when we were closed and none of the other artist would be there that way he would be calm and relaxed and would not have to deal with any other artist. He did not want to do that because he was leaving for a few weeks, he asked for his deposit back and i explained to him that i had already spent allot of time on drawing up his design and that I do not work for free. He was some what understanding but kept trying to get involved in a fight with the other people just standing out side because he was making such a seen.

I told him i had no problem giving him back half of the small deposit he left and did so with no problem, but still as i headed back into the shop he was trying to call people out, which makes me think he was just looking to fight with someone. We are a well established tattoo studio and have a great reputation in our community, we have an enormous list of clients that are returning daily to the shop and huge response of great reviews you can even read online. We are a pillar to our community as we give back so much by doing fundraiser for charity's and other events. Our shop is very clean FRIENDLY and our work is of great quality.

No one ever had a bad attitude towards this guy at all. We even have guest artist from around the globe come to our shop to work with us because they know we are a legit professorial studio. so this one review does not up set me at all but i thought that i should put out there the artist side of the whole story.

thank you.Travis
